Button color on 1940 & 1941 pushbutton radios
#1

I noticed that the buttons available at Radio Daze for the early 40s models like 40-150, 41-250, and 41-280 are available in two colors, brown and wine. The buttons on my 41-250 and 41-280 look brown, but the man at Radio Daze said they often look brown when they are old, and they could have been wine originally.

Does anyone know which models used the wine buttons? Could the same models have been built with either color? Is it pretty obvious whether they are brown or wine, or could a beat-up wine button look brown?

I like the way the wine ones look, but if brown is the original color, then that's what I want to replace the beat-up ones with.
